Melbourne will surely attract more players and more celebrities. We have a classy city here in Melb.

Incorrect.

Player base is much larger in Melbourne/Victoria.

First ever 888PL finals:

Vic - 450+
SA - >400

It's all dependant on the amount of venues running.

That was cool having so many people show up. Going into that semi I thought, as benny the cunt suggested, SA would have more runners but was pleasantly suprised by numbers.

Garth few questions. Did you expect that many Vic people to show up? Who got more for challenge semi - Vic or SA? Has the new league attracted more players here in Vic?

Victoria would have more but we DO hold our own with numbers!

888PL seems to be head and shoulders above the rest in SA.
